Major victory: 4300 pts
14 hrs 49 min to go
As it turned out, RAF Tornados took it on the nose while executing low level strike (as in real life). One loss was a bit of a bummer, lost control of a jet while under time compression and it strayed into a SAM envelope (I think it was an SA-3). The other was clearly careless on my part, tried to skirt an SA-8 site that wasn't actively radiating - until it did.
Question: The two Mirages were air-to-air encounters, I am guessing losses of aircraft on the ground are not modeled? Or just a matter of no aircraft on the ground at these targets?
